Game Day: TCU at SMU - BATTLE FOR THE IRON SKILLET pt. 73 - Sept 24th, 2022

[Froggy Style]

The concern for me isn't a lack of pressure when rushing 3, it's the number of times we sent 1-3 extra rushers and still didn't get home. You do need to occasionally get to the QB and we had a handful of 5 or 6 man pressures that didn't effect the QB and resulted in big plays down the field.

Agree, seems like we are panic blitzing still. Trust the drop 8 if that’s your scheme

How often does a team get pressure when rushing 3? I would think the percentages are quite low. Unless the competition is just a bunch of stiffs

pressure? i would suspect more than you think.

remember, this isn't about sacks, but instead forcing the quarterback to move or shift their eyes from down field and that is possible with a three man rush

If the team that played in the first half shows up against OU, I like our chances.

If the 3rd quarter team shows up, its gonna be ugly.

I wish there were easy data points to be found for each team, but I can't find them.
I rarely see a 3 man rush getting pressure on a QB. That's 5 on 3, in most cases. My guess is that a 3 man rush gets pressure less than 19% of the time.
Normally, what I see is if the QB is decent, he will be sitting back there for 4-8 seconds, picking apart a defense.

Pack the Carter. Beat OU!

I’m still trying to process that whistle while Miller was running. These refs are scheissing unbelievable and should not be calling games. Who are they?

Don’t be too hard on them. They just came from calling a 6 Man game in west Texas.

Some DL have the talent to pressure with just three, but I’ve seen no evidence that this TCU group can do so.

It's already sold out. Selling SRO tickets now.

We don’t create much pressure with 3 vs 5. SMU QB is too good to give him all day to throw. I think the heat got to our defense in the third quarter when our offense could not do a thing. They were always on the field. I am glad we won though.

 

[Strat Frog]

Thank you, Max! Great game!

 

[NathanRoman]

You wanna talk about c-list, the scheissing pa guy and scoreboard operator at the stadium were scheissing terrible.

Btw, good job on the pbp @NathanRoman.

Oh the scoreboard operation was absolutely terrible, and thank you very much I did the best I could with what that stadium provided

Plenty of tickets to be found but you’re gonna pay well for them.

don't think you are going to be able to find that data as pressures is a fairly open term and no real way to know when a quarterback has run because they were flushed out of the pocket or it was a designated call

program that has recruited for the position and developed their talent i think 1 in 5 is a bit low. maybe my thoughts on this are skewed from watching tcu and iowa state play the last few season

Optimist and pessimist in the same post. Nice.

I say #15 Max goes 1-3 vs Okie lifetime!

 

[HG73]

Penalties: Frogs 10, ponies 3. And one was the dumb call at the end. So really smu had 2 penalties.

I do not understand your point about the last penalty

 

[Virginia Frog]

The B12 is wide open and anybody can beat anybody. Most conference teams appear to have just as many, if not more flaws than the Frogs do. I still like our chances to win 4 or even 5 conference games.

As far as I'm concerned, it's a one-game season. OU at ACS, Sat, Oct 1 - make it a day that will live in infamy. Go team, Go Max, Go Sonny!

he was robbed one time. Did not give us a first down.

 

[gohornedfrogs]

I know I’m desperately looking for some glimmer of hope, so I’ll use the transitive properties of sports and point out Maryland took #4 Michigan to the wire.

So maybe SMU isn’t that bad.

A victory over Kansas is no longer a given.
